What else can I help you with?
What is latitude qnd longitude?
Latitude: The distance in degrees from the equator. Longitude: The distance in degrees east or west of the prime meridian.
What does latitude and longitude measure?
Location of a point on the surface of the earth.
Which lines-latitude or longitude- are always the same distance no matter where they are?
It's longitude Longitude goes vertically from one point and down so it is always going to be the same distance...Latitude goes horizontally so it isn't the same distance. HOPE THIS HELPED!
Which is the Latitude and which the Longitude?
The one that measures the angle from the equator and is tagged 'north' or 'south' is the latitude. The one that measures the angle from the Prime Meridian and is tagged 'east' or 'west' is the longitude.
Which lines-latitude or longitude-are always the same distance from each other no matter where they are on the planet?
Lines of latitude are always the same distance from each other, as they run parallel to the equator. Each degree of latitude is approximately 69 miles apart. Lines of longitude converge at the poles and are farthest apart at the equator.
What is latitude qnd longitude?
Latitude: The distance in degrees from the equator. Longitude: The distance in degrees east or west of the prime meridian.
What are the imaginary lines that measure distance on maps and globes?
east and west
What does latitude and longitude measure?

Can you use the distance formula to find the distance between two points on a map?
yes you can. It will represent longitude and latitude. Take the longitude and latitude from the first point and from the second one place the values in the formula you get the distance.
What is the distance from the same longitude point between latitude A43 and B51?
The distance from 43° to 51° north latitude, along a meridian of constant longitude,is 552.9 miles (889.8 km).
Do lines of longitude or lines of latitude show the distance east and west of the prim meridian?
longitude
What is the difference between a latitude-longitude map and a military grid reference system map?
Latitude measures the distance from East to West. Longitude measures the distance from North to South. As for Military Grid, it shows a location/object on the map and, what Latitude and Longitude line that location/object is on.

How does altitudes differ from latitudes?
altitude is your elevation. latitude is your distance north or south in comparison to the equator.
How are latitude and longitude related?
Latitude gives the angle, and therefore the distance from, the equator, which is a north to south distance. Longitude gives the angle, and therefore the distance, from the arbitrary Prime Meridian, thus defining locations by their distances east to west. Latitude lines, such as the equator, run horizontally on maps. Longitude lins, such as the International Date line, run vertically.
